SUMMARY:Computational Design
DESCRIPTION:Co-Optimization of Structure and Manufacturable Semi-Continuou
 s Layers for Laminated Composites\n\nA field-based computational framework
  for designing fabric-reinforced composites with optimized topology and ma
 nufacturable semi-continuous layers, producing laminates up to 43.8% stiff
 er than conventional planar-ply designs.\n\n\nTao Liu, Aoran Lyu, Yongxue

 play: A Modular Canvas for Physical Image Composition\n\nDiceplay is a mod
 ular, physical, low-resolution canvas that uses identical geometric dice t
 o create abstract visual compositions. We propose a gradient-based optimiz
 ation approach to generate Diceplay configurations from text prompts by us
 ing a novel shape grammar and relaxing the purely discrete de...\n\n\nMili

 mal-Hong Kong Baptist University); and David Laidlaw and Adriana Schulz (B
 rown University)\n---------------------\nA Unified Homogenization Framewor
 k for Straight- and Curved-Crease Origami Materials\n\nWe present a unifie
 d computational framework for numerical homogenisation of straight- and cu
 rved-crease origami materials with periodic crease patterns.\n\n\nMingjie

 Thomaszewski (ETH Zürich)\n---------------------\nmpcGear: Multi-Point Con
 jugation Gear Mechanisms\n\nThis work presents a new class of gear mechani
 sms, called multi-point conjugation gear mechanisms, as well as computatio
 nal techniques to modeling these gear mechanisms for exactly generating us
 er-specified 3D motions under external loads.\n\n\nKe Chen (University of

 ity of Technology and Design)\n---------------------\nKinematic Kitbashing
 \n\nKinematic Kitbashing synthesizes articulated 3D objects by assembling 
 reusable parts according to an abstract kinematic graph. It preserves plau
 sible attachments across motion using kinematics-aware geometric cues and 
 can optimize for functional goals, enabling new articulated designs from e
 xisting ...\n\n\nMinghao Guo (Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT))

 e-Motion Assemblies\n\nWe present a computational approach for designing c
 ontact-based coordinate-motion assemblies that meet user-specified target 
 appearance and motion.  One key enabler of our approach is that we establi
 shed a theoretical connection between contact geometry within an assembly 
 and unique coordinate motio...\n\n\nYukun Lu and Ke Chen (University of Sc

 -\nComputational Design of Terrestrial Robots with Anisotropic Friction\n\
 nThe interplay of morphology, control, and anisotropic friction makes opti
 mal design for terrestrial locomotion challenging. We present a computatio
 nal pipeline that co-designs friction and controllers across diverse robot
  morphologies, showing anisotropic friction is critical and achieving stat
 istic...\n\n\nHang Hu (Tsinghua University, Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute); Ka
